Hi Ruud and many thanks for your SWL report and the recording of my signal especially as I am still learning to use the paddle.
Great to know I was radiating with only 3 Watts (QCX).
The report is much appreciated.
Good listening and Best 73s

Thank you for your extensive SWL report, Ruud! I am surprised it's so detailed, and the attached recording of my signal is something wasn't even expecting. I wish you well reception in 2023!
Good evening Ruud! I would like to thank you for the SWL report, it has been years since I received any HI! Kudos also to your cw reception, really not very common nowadays 🙂
I have always ( about 50 years of radio activity ) been an avid QRP operator, although I do not disdain to use higher powers especially during contests, active as II3W or IQ3KU from our radioclub. My working conditions during QSO are 5W with a 20-meter long EFHW wire antenna. In fact, the station is placed JN65DR about 40 km away from my home: it is a remote station made by me ( rtx qrp USDX on a design by Guido PE1NNZ / Odroid XU4 SBC and homemade control / audio software). I will certainly send you my QSL to your address…I prefer paper ones to electronic ones too!!!
Have fun and thanks again for the report, much appreciated 🙂
Thanks for SWL report and congrats for your rx station and nice website, best 73.
Hi Ruud, thank you for the SWL report on my IT9ATQ beacon on 21.150 KHz CW. Really nice audio recording of the signal.
How nice is our hobby !!!

Hello Ruud! I am always glad to receive reports from SWL and do not ignore them.
Also very interesting is the SWL CW QSO record you provided on the 15m band with IK1NEG.
100% CFM SWL my paper QSL. I wish you success and good luck in radio! 73!

Hi Ruud! TNX for your SWL report and a record of my cw signal. I used my homebrew SDR transceiver abt 75 Watts into HEX BEAM antenna. Again, thanks and wish you good DXing! Take care.

Hello Ruud! I was impressed when you sent me your SWL report! Not only because you was able properly decode CW QSO but also looking at your achievements on you webpage. Exactly as you said, "SWL is not a synonym for second-class HAM". I understood that also after looking at https://swling.com/. That stereotype is probably because I never went too far as an SWL. Well, my grand-parent was a kind advanced SWL – Living in communist regime in Poland the only source of credible information was KF radio. And he was listening a lot, knowing when the best propagation will be, on this old tube based radio.
I can see you managed to overcome the antenna problem with nice magnetic loops. Nice!
Hello Ruud,
it's very interesting to receive your SWL Report for the CW contact I had with Marek – SP9MQG, all the way from your fine Short Wave Monitoring Station in Holland.
It's a small world, especially to think that I must have passed within a very few km's of your home, whilst travelling through Utrecht by train when visiting DAF's Truck Factory for my job.
Best wishes to you and all listeners Ruud. Happy Listening. Cheers, Mitch – G4WPS…
PS Don't tell anyone I said so, but SWL's make the best Amateur Radio Operators….
Ruud,
Many thanks for the email and listening in to my CW QSO with OE3HOI, Harald, on 18,078 at 1050hrs 21/07/22,Great to hear from you and know there are SWL’s out there. A QSL card is on its way.
All the best

Hi Ruud!
Tnx for your SWL report and a recorording of my cw signal. It was a second time when I heard my cw recorded, hi. I used my homebrew sideswiper key. Again, thanks and wish you good DXing! Take care. 73 OH5JJL
Hi Ruud,
yes the ten meter band was nicely open today.
Thanks for the SWL report.
I got my amateur license in 1959. I never had SWL number. Before getting my call sign I had copied about 200 countries on CW.Keep going on with SWL reprting.
